I have a question about the lighting in my black water tank. When I was setting this tank up, I needed dim lighting. I have a hood that takes one regular output light. I used a regular freshwater 24" 20 watt bulb, but it made my tank really bright (29 gallon tank). My lfs suggested I use a 50/50 reef bulb, which I bought and installed. It does look more dim, but I thought I saw a post about sw tubes not being good for freshwater tanks. My question is:
Is this doing more harm then good? Is there a better way to make a tank "dim"?
